2:01 pm
"the five" starts right now. >> raising the debt ceiling simply gives our country the ability to pay the bills that congress has already racked up. i want to emphasize that. the debt ceiling does not determine how much more money we can spend. it simply authorizes us to pay the bills we already have racked up. >> did you hear that? that was president obama just a few hours ago, saying at this debt ceiling wasn't going to allow us to spend more going forward. you know, there's a problem, because it does. that's exactly what it does. so mr. president, either you're disingenuous to the american people or you're not smart enough to run the country. the debt ceiling is for future spending. your tracks and spend checkbook, that's what you want, you want more credit on it for future spending. step away from the teleprompter, roll up your sleeves and get to work cutting spending. >> are you kidding me?
2:02 pm
>> not kidding one bit. >> first of all, when i called d that, i told the producer to cut that piece of tape. >> you clearly don't get it. >> what's wrong? >> it's called debacle. the reality of the debt ceiling is to pay for bills that are coming due approved by congressing going back to -- one to the nixon administration, paying off bond interest on reagan's bills. >> bob, they want to raise the debt -- by the way, if all you wanted to do was pay off prior spending, raise it $200 or $300 billion. walk away. >> if you look at obama's spending projections for obama care, all this other stuff he's proposed, yes, he needs that debt ceiling raised so he can spend it on everything he's proposed already. look, i think this is has been so bad for this president.
2:03 pm
i thought he displayed a lack of leadership before this, but i will say this is epic. >> you guys have got go back to civic classes. you don't get it. the debt is to pay for past spending by congresses. >> then pay it off and stop. >> there's no rule, bob, that says you can pay stuff off first and then spend later. don't have to be tied together. can i just say something? i happen to agree with the democrats, when i keep hearing about the debt ceiling, that i feel we're held hostage year. >> you look upset. >> you're always held hostage. >> he doesn't learn. >> that was a cue to the producers to run a package. >> oh, boy. >> oh, was that what that that . >> they are once again holding

2:06 pm
he put for the yahoo! tea party he put for the yahoo! tea party peoplecv7 it will go down in the senate. there's two other proposals, harry reid proposal and the mcconnell proposal. we had to ask for two times to go to vote. obama wanted to get it through 2012. so did reid. i think they've cave on that, accept the balanced budget amendment. >> and blame it on the tea party. >> i can blame this all on the tea party. >> bob, i actually agree with you -- >> they'll send it back to the house and the tea party won't matter anymore. >> that's right. >> they deserve credit for bringing -- even bringing this conversation to us. i mean, we wouldn't be -- i have to agree with bob. i have to agree with bob. you cannot burn down the house, because you have no where else
2:07 pm
to sleep, tea party. >> really? they burned the house down already. we're trying to put the fire out. >> at the end of the day, they realize if you compromise on this to move the country forward. >> come on, guys. tea party, hold firm. >> oh, mideas please stop this. >> you cannot control the entire political scene with one-half of one party and -- take the deal. >> they've split the republican party into conservative and republican. listen to john mccain, clearly not a conservative. listen to what he had to say. >> i think he appeals obviously to his leadership. this is really his leadership of the -- of the republicans in the house, and being speaker is clearly at stake here, if he can't bring his people along. >> he's right. >> that is the biggest crock. >> why do you think that?
2:08 pm
>> john boehner had support of 90% of members in his congress. he was going to pass the bill without earmarks. that means doing business old school, they're not doing that now. look, he's had to wrangle his members. he deserves a lot of credit. >> he does, but you would admit if he went down to defeat on this thing that cantor would be on his tail. >> yes, i agree with that, bob, but he would never let it go down. >> i'll give you this, he had to take on his own tea party. i give him credit for -- i just say that we're now you're the among the minorities of the minorities of the minorities. >> this man went to the house floor and called the tea party -- granted, he read from a "wall street journal" op-ed, but called the tea party hobbits. he's driving the wedge further. >> by the way, rush limbaugh is

great. charles krauthammer says declare victory, focus on 2012, republicans. rush limbaugh there is no victory because the boehner bill will turn into a reid bill with fake cuts and delays the budget. i'd like to believe that krauthammer is right, but i believe rush is right. >> they score the reid bill in real cuts substantially higher than they do the boehner bill. so that's not true. >> what are the cuts? it's the war. these nonexistent cuts. >> be careful, be careful. >> cuts may be one thing, but we're talking down the road, do we have a congress that will say, we'll cut $100 billion there, $100 billion there? >> if you overspend that puts
2:10 pm
had this country in peril. >> everybody was talking about how barack obama was the adult in the room, everybody else was the kids. he's tweeting right now. he's tweeting to congressmen. is that cyber bullying? so people will change their mind. this is what teenage girls do to get justin bieber to come to the mall. >> he's organizing. >> a friend of mine came out on the floor and said -- this is a real indication of what the fallback was -- he would accept the president to go to the 14th amendment route. >> don't do that. >> all i'm saying, this is blocks, eric e. put it on the floor, because when it comes up, if it had come up, it would have had support. >> it's ridiculous. it's ridiculous. it's not legal. it's not constitutional. >> coming up, rush limbaugh is warning that we're being played.

2:39 pm
senate that at one time was agreed to by the bipartisan leadership of the united states senate. and to my colleagues in the senate, if they were here, i would say this, if this bill passes, this house has sent you not one, but two different bills to cut spending by trillions of dollars over the next decade, while providing an immediate increase in the debt ceiling. and to the american people i would say, we've tried our level best. we've done everything we can to find a common-sense solution that could pass both houses of congress and end this crisis. we've tried to do the right thing by our country, but some people continue to say no. my clear, i have worked since the first week of this session when we were sworn in in jan to avoid -- in january to avoid being where we are right at the this moment. but two days after we were sworn in, the treasury secretary sent
